What skills and experience we're looking for
St Joseph’s RC Primary are currently seeking a class teacher to initially work within a KS2 class. This is an exciting opportunity to join the Trust at the beginning of a journey of transition, development, and growth within the multi-academy trust
As a Catholic school, our staff live out our Christian values and visions through their daily interactions with our children and each other. These Gospel values are central to the role of teacher within Catholic Education and at St Joseph’s we aim to develop our children in all aspects of their lives, so that they are provided with a strong faith, the skills and knowledge to take with them throughout their lives; enabling them to live life to the full. We are just as committed to our staff, who we are dedicated to developing and supporting on whichever career path they choose. Being a baptised Roman Catholic is not an essential criteria, but the commitment to the formation of our children within the Catholic faith is. Full support and, where needed, training will be provided for a successful candidate who has clearly shown this commitment.
St Joseph’s are part of a St Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Academy Trust, this provides teachers with the chance to strengthen practice through cross-school work and seek experiences beyond our own school. The Headteacher and her Senior Leadership Team are committed to developing staff through access to high quality professional development and mentorship.
Our Mission
Our Trust Mission is simple, it is to make Christ known, making lives better for our communities, our children and young people.
Our Values
One of Hope
Inspired by St Teresa of Calcutta, we are people of hope. We have a complete belief in the future we will build together. By offering our children, staff and schools’ opportunities to grow and flourish, we make aspiration and ambition a reality. Our people, just like St Teresa are relentless and fiercely ambitious. We will always reach for that which seems to be just out of our grasp.
One of Courage
As modelled for us by St Teresa of Calcutta, we will have the courage to do what is right. As a community, we will not shy away from making decisions that ensure our communities thrive. We will be brave in our actions. As a truly Catholic organisation this courage will be most apparent in how we collectively support the most vulnerable.
One of Innovation
St Teresa of Calcutta changed the world. Together, we will always be pursuing new ideas and best practice in all areas of our work. We will prepare our children and young people for the world that awaits them. A world which they will shape and change.
Purpose of the role:
We are seeking to appoint an inspirational, enthusiastic teaching professional who can work as part of our dedicated and exceptional team. The candidate will be expected to demonstrate the ability to meet the Teachers’ Standards. All classroom teachers will contribute to the curriculum and year teams in supporting the school’s mission statement and achieving its aims. As a professional within a Catholic School, you will be expected to enhance the life of the school by delivering and developing high quality teaching and learning, contributing to the work of the teams of teaching and support staff, being reflective about your own practice and effectiveness: sharing with, and learning from the work of others, and constantly seeking ways to improve through innovation and research.
We are seeking an individual who:
- Is an exceptional practitioner with strong subject knowledge and experience of raising achievement across the age and ability range.
- Is highly motivated by a belief that the life chances of all young people can be improved.
